Edit: weird, i used direct link and it still shows up as URL not photo.
Today I just fixed some minor things.
1. Thermal now has black stripe that was missing.
2. Glued biceps down.
3. Foamed up the pouches.
4. Gaskets I just used my sewing machine to make them smaller by sewing the inside seam. Pulled it farther into forearm.
now i’m moving towards the yoke seams.
updated yoke:
I actually swapped anovos out because it would be more difficult to undo all the JB I used.
now I’m moving on to cleaning and repainting parts. After that will be addressing all the suiting up errors which can be fixed. Also planing on adding more velcro or magnet to reduce the TD gap even more.

something easy out of the way, adjusted thermal to be more flush is possible. Same goes for butt plate.

Nice work trooper, FYI if you use the "direct link" your images should show in your thread
Your right arm bicep appears to be open, normally these are glued as they don't need to be opened when putting them on your arms. You have quite a few dark marks on the armor, some GML's may pick this up, I find using some auto polish can get rid of most marks. Could be my eyes or the photo but your belt boxes look a different shade of white? There is also some bunching of the gaskets at your elbows, I added some loops of elastic to the cuffs of my gaskets which helps keep them tight when putting on. Your left shoulder bell appears to have a gap between it and the back/yoke, should match the other side.
Your detonator is not flush with your back, note the detonator on the right side trooper in image below. Back/yoke looks to be pushed backwards which will leave a gap between it and your detonator, you may be able to adjust this.
You are also missing the black strip on the left side of the detonator. Butt plate looks to be on an angle compared to your back, this could be what is making your belt pouches/boxes to be on an angle, note the left is pretty noticeable, adding some stiff foam to the inside of the pouch can help. There is also some bunching of your gaskets, note between biceps and bells.
You have a hinge/join between the chest and yoke/back, this is how Anovos made their last FOTK armor BUT it is not screen correct, this should be glued, filled and painted, note the reference below
Appears to be a large gap under the butt plate, you can see your elastic strap, not sure if you could pull the butt plate in more. Detonator gap on this side also.
I think that's about it for the moment, but I've only had one coffee so far today
Thank You i’ll get right on it!!

I just moved from California and i’m trying to get into 501st Carolina Garrison with this new FOTK armor. Sadly I had to let my ANH hero go so I have to get re-approve with this new one. I requested Legion of the Guard to transfer my TKID over but currently I am retired looking to get back into the game.
Thank you for helping.

for the second question if the plate can go like this
-
I’m a skinny guy so I added some foam on the inside after reading some suggestions and minimize the overlapping a bit. Would like to know if this is acceptable or will I need to fix. also can the butt plate come up and go over the back plate (it just fits me better) will that be acceptable also? thank you.

And is it good enough for basic approval? thanks in advance I prefer the look of hero and this helmet met all the CRL unless i’m missing something

Hi, I working on putting a strap between the biceps and the forearm but I’m not sure which way it’s suppose to go. In the picture, the ‘A’ way allows for movement but the ‘B’ seem to be more popular.
thanks in advance.

My shoulder straps snapped and instead of repairing the straps I replaced them (I used the broken straps to make some paste). My replacement straps are too long however, so I trimmed (from the back) 1 big bar and two smaller ones to fit properly after reading some forums about cutting the straps. Was wondering if this is approvable or will I have to buy a new set of straps. Any suggestions on which one to buy? Thanks in advance.
